Back in Plaid

It’s so nice to be back in plaid again. Stripes are celebrated all year round, but plaid… we all know plaid is best saved for fall and winter. Mix them together and – bam – magic. My last post must have been read by Mother Nature who decided to cut Texans a break and give us a small cool front this past weekend (you’re welcome, Texas! :P), so of course I grabbed my plaid scarf and booties to take advantage of it.

I’ll admit, I’m new to blanket scarves. I remember seeing them last year at Zara and suddenly they were all the rage in the blog-o-sphere. I didn’t hop on board then, so now I’m finally giving them a shot! They are definitely a lot of fabric to work with, but a quick search of “how to wear a blanket scarf” on Pinterest showed me multiple ways to style them easily. Good ol’ Pinterest! What did I ever do before its existence?
